The Science Behind Cold Process Soap
Cold process soap is made by combining oils with lye, creating a chemical reaction called saponification that produces true soap. Unlike commercial detergent bars that strip skin, cold process soap retains natural glycerin—a humectant that draws moisture to your skin. The result is gentle cleansing that leaves skin soft, never tight or dry.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What makes artisan soap different from store-bought soap?
A: True artisan soap is made through cold process saponification, which retains natural glycerin—a moisturizing compound that commercial manufacturers remove and sell separately. Our handcrafted bars cleanse gently without stripping skin, while most commercial "soaps" are actually detergent bars that can leave skin tight and dry.
Q: How long will one bar last?
A: With proper care (keeping it dry between uses on a draining soap dish), one 4-5oz bar typically lasts 3-4 weeks with daily use. Cold process soap creates a harder, longer-lasting bar than commercial alternatives.
Q: Is this soap suitable for sensitive skin?
A: Yes! Goat milk is naturally gentle and soothing, making it ideal for sensitive skin. The premium plant oils create a mild, non-stripping lather. However, if you have fragrance sensitivities, we recommend patch testing first or exploring our unscented options.
Q: Will the shimmer transfer to my skin or tub?
A: The golden shimmer is cosmetic-grade mica that rinses away cleanly with water. It won't stain your skin or tub—it's purely decorative to make the bar beautiful.
Q: Can I use this on my face?
A: While gentle enough for facial use, we recommend our specialized facial cleansers for optimal face care. This bar is perfect for hands, body, and anywhere you want gentle cleansing with a mood-boosting scent.
Q: Why does the scent fade over time?
A: Natural soap continues to cure and harden after production, which can cause fragrance to mellow slightly. Store your soap in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the scent. The fragrance will bloom beautifully when wet.
Q: Is goat milk soap really better for skin?
A: Yes! Goat milk contains lactic acid (a gentle alpha hydroxy acid), vitamins A and D, and minerals that nourish skin. It creates a creamy lather that cleanses without stripping, making it particularly beneficial for dry or sensitive skin.
Q: What does "saponified oils" mean?
A: Saponification is the chemical process that transforms oils and lye into soap and glycerin. By the time the soap reaches you, all lye has been converted—leaving only gentle, skin-nourishing soap with natural glycerin intact.
Q: Can I pair this with other products?
A: Absolutely! Sugar Coast pairs beautifully with any of our artisan soaps. Try Dark Kisses for romantic evenings or keep Sugar Coast for your morning mood boost.
